Seeing Miracles - Daily Dose of Wisdom

Why did miracles happen in Egypt? Because we believed they would. Those who didn't believe in miracles saw only plagues.

Seeing miracles

You say miracles happen because people believe they do.

Would this also apply to the revelation at Sinai when the whole nation were present?

segregated by belief

Is that something like birth and death?
I'd kind of like to transcend the segregation in between, but I guess freedom doesnt allow it

Passover

I view the plagues as more symbolism than reality though just as important a message to the world and Jews. The ten plagues symbolize the struggle people go through by not adhering to God's law and not believeing. The plagues can also symbolize what happens to non-believers like Dante's inferno.

I wonder how much the Israelites believed in miracles if they were scared when Moses didn't return quick enough and they built an Idol. Just think how many people today act the same way. They're in such a hurry to get what they want and in the end they miss the real miracles right before them.
Happy Passover
